Application Time Frames

How long your application will take to process depends on many factors, including receiving complete and correct documents for your:

academics

references

work experience

APEGA will not review your application until all complete documents are received.

If APEGA contacts you for more information, or if any documents were incorrectly submitted, APEGA will pause your application until we receive the information. It is your responsibility, as the applicant, to be sure that APEGA receives everything required to process your application.

A time-consuming step in most applications is reviewing your academic history. If your academic program is CEAB accredited, this step is much shorter.
